Thank you for reviewing my book! 😊You can catch my 20-minute meals on Ch 4 📺where you’ll see me cook in real time 🍳one continuous shot 🎥& with no prep team behind the scenes! 🙌

The problem with dough is flour isn’t a uniform product and varies in how much water it needs. Until you get to know how a specific dough is supposed to feel, so can vary the fluid, it can be a bit hit and miss.

I’m sure he had all cut ready. He has a team round him,  we don’t. You did well. 😊😊

It’s the kind of mixture I use to make a crustless quiche! Interesting, thanks

Easiest way to cut the dough for pierogi is to use a wine glass ( also a good size). In my experience pierogi are the sort of meal where you spend a few hours making 70 or 80, your friends get to the table and all the pierogi disappear when you blink. You should put the pierogi into boiling water and fish them out individually as they float up. They are traditionally served with melted butter and crispy onions +/-  crispy bacon and sour cream.
I’m amazed it only took 28 minutes . 👏👏👏 I do hope you try them again .
The other solution is upstairs in Cardiff Market where the pierogi taste as good as home-made ( but they’re not there on Mondays )

Love this!

Did you see there’s a corresponding series on Channel 4? I would probably add 10 mins to the time as a non chef regular cook like myself to the more complicated recipes. I can’t chop as fast as he does 😂

Thanks heaps for that! ❤

I had his 30 minute meals and he prefaced it saying it was basically 30 minutes after you'd prepped everything 🫣 I didn't realise and tried to make one and it basically gave you a main, sides and sometimes a pudding, which this particular one did... It took me over and hour to do, and I was sweating and stressed 🤣🤣 it was good though, but I don't think I made many recipes from it before it went to the charity shop for a better home x

I couldn’t watch you cut those spring onions… it’s TERRIFYING 😱 You’re going to lose a finger, please ask someone to show you how to use a knife properly. The ham was just as bad 🤦🏼‍♀️
